PROGRAM VT 2022 ODEUM LUNDS UNIVERSITETS MUSIKCENTRUM TEMA: NATURSKILDRINGAR Välkomna till vårens evenemangsserie vid Odeum, fylld av konserter, gästspel och samtal om musik! Temat för våren är Naturskildringar. Ett brett tema där vi inte minst vill lyfta fram de pågående klimatförändringarna och vad dessa för med sig för skapande musiker och tonsättare. Några av de svenska tonsättare som skrivit

Aims: In a co-twin control design, we aimed to examine whether individuals who initiate metformin treatment have an altered risk of incident diagnosis of osteoarthritis (OA), for up to 11 years after starting the treatment, compared with their non-treated co-twin. Methods: In all twin pairs different for metformin treatment (N=1 261 pairs) and all eligible twins/singletons (N=52 341) aged 35–75 ye

Tuvalu, a sovereign island state in the Pacific, faces an unprecedented threat: entering a condition of uninhabitability and losing its land territory due to sea-level rise (SLR). While its inhabitants fight passionately to preserve their home, their remarkable culture, and statehood, existing scientific and legal frameworks remain fragmented to address the situation. The thesis aimed to develop a

In this study, soil cores (0–20 cm) were collected at 45 sites located within a 30-km radius zone around the Belarusian nuclear power plant (BelNPP) in 2019 before its commissioning. Activity of gamma-emitting radionuclides was measured in the samples using HPGe detectors. The study revealed low levels of 137Cs in the soil: the weighted average dry weight (d.w.) activity concentration (ACw) varied

Objectives: To investigate the relation between adherence to dietary recommendations, the quantified intake of the components of these recommendations, and the risk of developing giant cell arteritis (GCA). Methods: Participants in the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study cohort who subsequently developed GCA were identified through register linkage and validated in a structured review. Four controls, matc

While many studies have examined carbon dynamics of boreal ecosystems following wildfire, research on forest-atmosphere carbon fluxes during widespread smoke events from adjacent active wildfires is limited. We examined eddy covariance carbon exchange adjacent to the May 2011 Utikuma Complex wildfire in central Alberta, Canada. Over a one-week period while the wildfire was burning <10 km from the

Simulating temporal changes in breast tissue has been challenging, despite advancement in virtual clinical trials. This study aims to enable virtual trials over time, motivated by interest in the effect of tissue involution on tumor visibility. We present a framework for creating 3D voxel-based breast phantoms and lesions using in-house Perlin Noise-based algorithm. The framework consists of three

Climate change may affect the yield of mass-flowering crops by altering the interplay between pest pressure and service delivery by pollinators, but realistic predictions need to account for the frequent use of insecticides in conventional farming. We tested the interactive effects of insecticide use and warmer winter conditions on oilseed rape (Brassica napus) production, pest pressure, and the a

We present a wall-to-wall map of dominant tree species in Swedish forests accompanied by pixel-level uncertainty estimates. The tree species classification is based on spatiotemporal metrics derived from Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 satellite data, combined with field observations from the Swedish National Forest Inventory and auxiliary data on geomorphometry and canopy height. We apply an extreme g

A search for the resonant production of a heavy scalar X decaying into a Higgs boson and a new lighter scalar S, through the process X → S(→bb¯)H(→γγ), where the two photons are consistent with the Higgs boson decay, is performed. The search is conducted using an integrated luminosity of 140 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector

Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) can induce oxidative stress, genomic instability, and epigenetic modifications. In occupational settings, Cr(VI)-exposed workers may also be exposed to other toxicants, such as elements besides Cr, and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). However, research on the extent of these co-exposures and their combined effects remains limited. The objective of this study

Herein, it is shown that a fully vertical GaN FinFET can reach close to ideal Baliga's figure of merit (BFOM) for thicker drift layers. Devices with drift layers between 1 and 8 (Formula presented.) are simulated using TCAD, and the device geometry is varied to find optimal device performance. For 8 (Formula presented.) drift layers, device operation at the BFOM limit is found with (Formula presen

Transcription factor cooperation is essential for specifying the heterogeneous dendritic cell (DC) lineages that orchestrate adaptive immunity, yet how it drives subset diversification remains poorly understood. Here, we employed a sequential anchored screen of 70 transcription factors using direct cellular reprogramming to identify regulators that specify type 2 conventional DCs (cDC2s) and plasm

Eddy covariance measurement of species that are co-emitted with carbon dioxide (CO2), such as carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen oxides NO and NO2 (NOx), provides an opportunity to attribute a net flux to individual source or sink categories. We present eight months of continuous simultaneous measurements of fluxes (F) of CO2, CO, NOx, methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O) from a tall tower (112 m

Background Preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) is a spirometry pattern of interest regarding incident airflow obstruction and higher mortality risk. We applied a proteomic approach to gain more insight into the biological mechanisms associated with PRISm. Methods From the population-based Swedish Cardiopulmonary Bioimage Study (SCAPIS), participants in the Main (n=4835) and Pilot (n=1054)

Glycophospholipids combine the structural versatility of phospholipids and carbohydrates, but their potential as excipients and performance in other related applications remains largely unexplored due to their low natural abundance. We have synthesized four novel phosphatidyl saccharide conjugates with different carbohydrate head groups; glucose, galactose, fructose and xylose by using a Phospholi

Background: Acute aortic syndrome (AAS) is a life-threatening condition reported as often misdiagnosed. Advancements in CT availability and diagnostic algorithms, including high-sensitivity troponin and D-dimer for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and pulmonary embolism (PE), may reduce AAS misdiagnosis, but the impact remains unclear. This study evaluated the incidence, characteristics, and clinical

Nanoplastics are emerging environmental contaminants that increasingly threaten soil ecosystems, yet their effects on microbial behavior remain poorly understood. This is mainly due to the lack of experimental tools capable of directly observing microbial dynamics in situ under realistic soil-like conditions. Here, we present a proof-of-concept system that enables real-time, high-throughput monito

Catalytic active phases are often separated from inactive ones by their appearance/removal in heating/cooling experiments. Such experiments can reveal ignition, extinction, and often an associated hysteresis. The corresponding behavior and hysteresis under rapid gas composition changes in the milliseconds regime remain largely unexplored. However, such experiments can potentially be highly rewardi
